Unexpected Love (South Coast Brothers Book 5)

by Kacey Hamford

  ***

  We were seated at a round table at the back of the coffee shop and I was already on my third cup of coffee for the day. Jasmine had a pot of tea and a fancy looking cup and saucer that you could only get two mouthfuls out of.

  “Please be nice when he arrives.”

  “I will.” I looked up when I heard the bell above the door chime. Ace and Ana walked in and I stood to my feet. I held out my hand to shake Ace’s and he grasped mine firmly.

  “I’m sorry about yesterday, it all just came as a bit of a shock. I didn’t introduce you properly. This is Jasmine, my Old Lady.” She climbed to her feet and gave him a quick hug.

  “It’s nice to see you both again.” She hugged Ana too before we all sat down. The waitress came over and Jasmine ordered a double order of toasted tea cakes and Ace and Ana ordered a coffee each.

  “What club you with?” I asked as I nodded towards his leather cut.

  “The Unforgiven Riders. We’re not too far from here, only in Torquay. How long you been a member?”

  “Fourteen years now. You?”

  “Same. Mum bought me my first bike when I was sixteen and I prospected when I was eighteen. Now I’m the Sergeant At Arms.” The waitress placed everything we ordered on the table before waltzing away.

  “Nancy’s funeral is in three days. It would be great if you could come, both of you.” Ana smiled. I wasn’t entirely sure who this chick was, she wasn’t his Old Lady and he was friendly towards her but not in a couples way.

  “Thank you. We’ll…”

  “We’ll discuss it,” I cut Jasmine off. I hadn’t decided if I wanted to go yet. I never even knew the woman.

  “We’ve gotta head back today. Get everything sorted out,” Ace said. “I’d really like it if we could stay in touch. Maybe get to know each other? I’d like to meet your son too, at some point.”

  “That would be nice. Nate would love that, wouldn’t he, Aiden?” Jasmine placed her hand on my leg.

  “Yeah, he’ll be asking to ride your bike before you know it.”

  “How old is he?” Ace asked.

  “Five.” Jasmine beamed.

  “Wow, you guys have been together a while then,” Ana said.

  “Not long enough,” I added.

  “Thank you for agreeing to talk to me,” Ace said as he climbed to his feet.

  “Thanks for coming to find me.” We shook hands as I stood up straight. Ana and Jasmine climbed to their feet too.

  “We’ll let you know about the funeral,” Jasmine added, standing in close to my side. We held hands and watched Ace throw his arm over Ana’s shoulder before they walked out of the café.

  “Shall we go and pick Nate up and head over to the house to see how the changes are progressing?”

  “I’d like that.” Jasmine smiled. “I just need to use the bathroom real quick.”

  “Ok, flower. I’ll meet you outside.” I threw some money onto the table and headed outside. I was leaning against the passenger door waiting for her when I heard the rumble of a bike. I glanced to my left to see Ace’s bike. He had his helmet on and Ana’s arms were holding on tight to him. He nodded his head at me as he took off.

  “You ok?” Jasmine’s voice came to my right. I smiled at her and held her door open. She kissed me before I shut it. My phone buzzed in my pocket as I rounded the car, I pulled it out to see I had a text.

  “Shit, I gotta get to church,” I told her as I climbed in and started the engine.

  “I’ll come with you and we can get Nate after.”

  Within ten minutes, we were pulling in through the gates and I was helping Jasmine out of the car.

  “Hey, man, Jasmine,” Pup called out. He was sitting on the top of the picnic bench with Cooper in his arms. “It’s warm out today.”

  “Yeah, it is. Church started yet?” I asked him.

  “Shit, we got church? I’m going to have to wake up Tanya.” He climbed off the bench and we walked into the clubhouse together. It was dark and dull compared to the brightness outside.

  “I’ll look after him,” Jasmine offered.

  “Really?” Pup asked.

  “Yeah, of course. I haven’t had a chance to cuddle him much.” She smiled.

  “Thank you.” He sighed in relief as he handed him over. “I’ve just fed him so he should be ok for now.”

  “Hello, gorgeous,” Jasmine cooed at him. “I’m going to go and sit down. See you in a bit.” She smiled at me and angled her head towards me for a kiss. I covered her lips with mine and pulled away when she moaned with pleasure. That noise shot straight to my cock and he was starting to wake.

  “Church!” Prez called out. Perfect timing; that scared it away.

  “See you in a bit, flower.”

  We all filed in and took our seats and Prez slammed the gavel down.

  “Right, so this is just a catch up meeting; to see how we’re all getting on. Solar, how’s that Old Lady and son of yours doing?”

  “Really great, Prez. They’re both settled back into school and after Jasmine’s accident, Nate finally opened up about his kidnapping. He’s a tough kid.”

  “Tat, how’s Eden?”

  “Haven’t heard a thing from her since she left here and moved back home.”

  “She’s at work and looks happy enough,” I added. I remembered seeing her when I met Jasmine for lunch last week.

  “What about the visitors you had, Solar? Jono said they were from the Unforgiven Riders MC?”

  “Yeah.” I sighed as I gripped the back of my neck with my hand. “It turns out he’s my brother; twin brother. He came to tell me that my mum had croaked it.” I shrugged my shoulder like it wasn’t a big deal.

  “You ok?” Holes asked.

  “Yeah.” I sat back and didn’t offer up any more info so the Prez carried on.

  “Pup, how’s that boy and woman of yours?”

  We all looked in Pups direction and his smile was broad across his face. He really did love being a dad.

  “Cooper is doing great, perfect. Tanya, not so great.”

  “In what way?” Holes asked.

  “She doesn’t want anything to do with him. Can we maybe get the doc in to see if she’s got that thing that some chicks get after giving birth? Depression or whatever it is?”

  “Of course. I’ll call him after church.”

  “Thanks, Prez.”

  “Any other business?” Prez asked.

  “Prez.” I nodded my head. He waved his arm out telling me to go ahead. “I’ve spoken numbers with the manager at ‘Nudes’ and he’s willing to sell for a cheap price. It’s ours if we want it?”

  “Let’s take a vote.” He went around the table and everyone was all for the newest Cornish Crusaders adventure. “Go ahead and sign the papers,” he said to me. I nodded in agreement before he slammed down the gavel and we all climbed to our feet. Pup and I headed for the direction of Jasmine and we rounded the corner to see Jasmine was sitting next to Cammie. Harley was sitting on Cammie’s lap and Cooper was on Jasmine’s shoulder.

  “Hey.” Both women looked up at me as I spoke. “Hey, little buddy,” I said to Harley. His arms waved in the air and Cammie passed him to me.

  “Go and see uncle Solar. Is my son really going to grow up calling you all by your road names?”

  “Yes.” There was a chorus of an answer as me, Pup, Tat and Holes answered together.

  “Hey, sweetheart.” Holes bent down to kiss Cammie. I looked at Jasmine and she blushed as she looked away.

  “Not the beard, dude,” I complained as Harley grabbed a fistful of it in his tiny hands.

  “Why do you think I don’t go any further than designer stubble?” Holes laughed as he tried to distract Harley so he would let go. Once he released me, I passed him over to his dad and rubbed at the sore spot on my chin.

  “Shall we go and get Nate?” I asked Jasmine. She nodded her head and pulled Cooper off her shoulder and handed him to me. He was small and sat in the crook of my arm pe
rfectly.

  “Pup,” Prez called. We all looked in his direction. “Doc is on his way.” Pup nodded his thanks and I passed Cooper over to him.

  “If you need help, please call us,” Jasmine said as she placed her hand on his forearm.

  “I will, thanks.” Cooper started fussing so Pup walked away to sort him out.

  “Let’s go,” I said as I slipped Jasmine’s hand in mine. “See you all later!” I called out as we left the clubhouse.

  “Wow, look at this place?” Jasmine sounded shocked by how quickly the builders had managed to get the place nearly done in such a little amount of time. A bit of extra cash always got jobs done quicker.

  “It’s not quite finished yet.” Now as you walked in Jasmine’s front door you were met with a big wide open space. The whole of the bottom floor was opened planned. On the right was an area that would hold a small sofa and TV. That would be Nate’s chill out area and behind that was a downstairs double bedroom. On the left would be the main living area and the front door that was there had been blocked up. The stairs was in the middle of the two large rooms, the Miller’s house was two floors whereas Jasmine’s house had only one floor. The large kitchen spanned most of the back wall, a large breakfast bar was in the centre and to the side would be a space for a kitchen table.

  “Come and look upstairs. Nate, you wanna see your room?”

  “Yeah!” he shouted out with glee and ran upstairs. As you got upstairs, there were five doors. One right in front of us and four doors to the left.

  “Your room is the one down the end of the hall.” We all walked down the end of the hallway and Nate pushed the door open. It was a large room that overlooked the front garden. “You can have it decorated anyway you like.”

  “I want it like space. I’m going to walk on the moon one day.”

  “The room next door is the bathroom, then two smaller bedrooms and our room is the one on top of the stairs. You wanna see it?” I asked Jasmine. She nodded, so I grabbed her hand and led her that way.

  “Oh my god,” she gushed.

  “I had an extension built on so we could have a large room with an en-suite. Then there is still plenty of room for all of our kids, plus a guest bedroom downstairs.”

  “All of our kids? How many more were you planning?”

  “No planning, let’s just see where life takes us.”

  “I like the sound of that.” She raised on her tiptoes to kiss me and I wrapped my arms around her waist.

  “Mum, Dad? When are we moving in?” Nate asked as he came barrelling into the room.

  “We gotta wait for it to be finished first and decorated. I’m hoping within a couple of weeks.”

  “Yes!” Nate fist pumped the air and ran back towards his bedroom.

  “I’m guessing he likes it?” I chuckled.

  “Yes. Thank you for doing all of this. I really love it. I can’t wait to make it our home; as a family.”

  Jasmine

  I had planned for mum to collect Nate from school because today was the day of Solar’s mum’s funeral and he hadn’t mentioned it since. I had called Ana to get all the details and she had told me that it was at two o’clock this afternoon and where to go.

  “What are you doing?” Solar asked as he ambled into our bedroom as I laid his trousers and shirt out on the bed.

  “We’re going to your mum’s funeral,” I told him as I looked through the wardrobe to find something suitable to wear.

  “No, we’re not,” he sighed. I looked over my shoulder and he was sitting on the edge of the bed with his head in his hands.

  “Aiden, honey, you need to do this. I don’t want you to regret not going.” I knelt on the floor in front of him.

  “I won’t.”

  “Aiden, look at me.” When he didn’t, I pressed my lips to his head. “Please.” His head moved and I looked him in the eye. “Do you want to get to know Ace?” His head nodded. “This is the first step to doing that. Go and make your peace. Let her rest in peace knowing that you forgive her.”

  “Do I forgive her?” he asked.

  “Do you? Only you can answer that.”

  “No.” He shook his head. “She left me with a man who used to hit and punch me, repeatedly. How can I ever be ok with knowing that was the life she let me have? Before Ace, it wasn’t as bad because I thought she had left just me, but now knowing that she saved my brother… that hurts like nothing else. Why him? And not me?”

  “You’ve bottled this up for so long. It’s time to let it all out, tell her how you feel. Make peace with it and her. Please? For Ace? He needs you today.”

  “Fine. When do we need to leave?”

  “Not until eleven. That gives us loads of time. Kathy is coming to pick Nate up for school.” Just as I said that, the buzzer for the door went. “That will be her.” I climbed to my feet and rushed out of the room. “Nate, that’s Kathy for you.” I grabbed his school bag and ushered him towards the door. “Have a great day. Nan will be picking you up after football practice. Don’t forget. I Love you.”

  “Love you!” he shouted as he ran down the stairs and out the front door. I closed the door, turned around and leant against it. I hoped that I was doing the right thing by making Solar go to his mum’s funeral.

  “We’ll need to get some fuel on the way,” Solar said as he strutted out of the bedroom towards me. I had moved into the kitchen to make a cup of tea. “The car is nearly on empty. Why do you never fill it up?” he asked, grabbing me by the waist.

  “Because you’re so much better at doing it.” I smiled.

  “You mean, so I pay for it?”

  “That too.” I giggled. “Anyway, we need to take your bike today.”

  “Why?” He released me as the kettle finished boiling and I poured hot water into our mugs as he grabbed the milk from the fridge.

  “Ana said Ace would love it if you could both ride side by side behind the funeral car.”

  “Flower, I really don’t want to take two vehicles.”

  “We won’t. I can ride up with you and then I can jump in with Ana while you boys ride together.”

  “Flower, you know I don’t think you should be on the back of my bike when you’re carrying precious cargo.” He placed his hand on my now obvious baby bump. I was glad I was out of that just looking fat phase.

  “I’m fine to ride with you. I like it. We can leave earlier and stop a couple of times on the way if that makes you feel better?”

  “Fine. How do you always manage to make me do what you want me to?”

  “I’m just persuasive.” I kissed him quickly before picking up my cup of tea and sitting on the sofa.

  “I’m going to jump in the shower, wanna join me?” he asked, wiggling his eyebrows up and down.

  “Nope.” His face fell through disappointment. “We don’t have time. With the way I’m feeling at the minute, one round would no way be enough.”

  “Oh yeah? How are you feeling, flower?” he asked as he strolled towards me. He took my cup out of my hand and placed it on the coffee table before settling on his knees between my thighs.

  “What are you doing?” I moaned as his large hands roamed over my thighs. I was still in my pyjamas and he quickly grabbed the waistband and yanked them down. I gasped as the cool air hit me between the legs.

  “Mmmm, you smell delicious.” He nibbled and sucked a path up my inner thigh and then stopped. I opened my eyes and looked down at him. He rose to his feet and pulled my top off, my breasts bounced free and I had to grab onto them as they were aching more and more recently.

  He grabbed my hand and led me back to our bedroom. He threw the clothes that I had laid out for him onto the floor but I was too aroused to care about it. He quickly stripped out of his clothes and jumped onto the bed. He crooked his finger at me as he laid flat on his back. I straddled his waist and used his hard cock to ease some of the tension between my thighs; the faster I rubbed, the closer to rele
ase I got. Solar tucked his hands under my legs until he had a hand on each of my bum cheeks. I yelped in surprise when he lifted me off of his cock and onto his face. I pressed my palms flat onto the wall behind the headboard to steady myself. His tongue was magic, he knew how to work me up in the most perfect way. I was soon moving my hips, chasing my release. I screamed out his name as the first wave hit me and then I was moving in the air again. He had spun me around so my knees were above his shoulders and he pulled me back against his face. I moaned in pleasure and flattened my body against his so I could take his cock in my mouth. As soon as I licked up his length, a bead of pre-cum hit my tongue. I could never get enough of his salty taste, I didn’t get it too often as he always liked to come inside me; it was his way of claiming me over and over again apparently.

  I cried out my release once more and sucked harder and faster as I grabbed hold of his balls.

  “Flower? Pussy, now,” he demanded. I released him from my mouth and scrambled down his body quickly. I rose above him, grabbed his length with my hand and pushed down onto him. My back was still to him and I placed my hands on his knees as leverage to push myself up and down on him, fast. He was close to release and I was too. I’d lost count on how many times he had made me cum, yet it was still never enough. What was this baby doing to my body? Whatever it was, I loved it.

  “Come on, flower. Work it harder,” he demanded. I stretched my arms out, grabbed a fistful of the duvet in each hand and lowered my body closer to the bed and pushed back onto him faster and harder than I ever had before. After a few strokes, his large hands grasped my hips and he stilled me as he pushed into me, releasing his seed, which made me cum again. Once I could breathe normally, I pulled off of him and settled on my side at the bottom of the bed, I was broken. I couldn’t move.

  “Fuck, flower. That was intense,” he rasped as his hand stroked up and down my back. “Come on, let’s get cleaned up.”

  “Can’t. Move,” I murmured.

  “I got you.” He cradled me in his arms and we were soon moving to the bathroom. I just wanted to sleep. I was exhausted. “If you’re all sleepy then I’ll definitely be taking the car.”
